“In a sea of books on writing that mercilessly urge aspiring authors to live, breathe, and bleed their craft—often at the expense of their physical, mental and emotional wellbeing—Wild Words is a breath of fresh air. Divided into 10 digestible chapters that break the writer’s journey into seasons, this gentle guidebook has advice for every stage of your writing career. Offering manageable exercises that fit comfortably into a busy schedule, Gulotta makes the seemingly impossible task of carving out time to be creative actually possible. For all my fellow writers out there, this one is for you.”—Alexandra Fournier, [EDIT] magazine
“Wild Words does the near impossible: equips the doubting, frenzied mind with the rhythms and tools it needs to drop down into the body of the writer and, finally, surrender to write. Every season, ritual, and routine feels like a deep breath into creativity.”—Lily Diamond, Author of Kale & Caramel
“With her beautiful prose and practical, meet-you-where-you-are, organic routines, Nicole Gulotta sheds light on how to cultivate a lifelong relationship with creativity—one that reframes the work from a stressful, frenzied task to a joyful, fulfilling, and sustainable practice. Wild Words is a true gift to anyone who has ever wondered how to find and share their unique voice.”—Stef Ferrari, co-author of A Woman’s Place
“If you’ve ever said ‘I don’t have time to write,’ this book will prove you wrong. Wild Words is a must-read. Gulotta’s personal story is both compelling and inspiring; her exercises make it easy for anyone to apply these lessons to whatever season of life you’re in with your writing career.”—Jeff Goins, bestselling author of You Are a Writer (So Start Acting Like One)
